Registering iPhone
Registering iPhone with iTunes enables iTunes to identify your iPhone when its connected to your computer and help you manage its contents. You can then sync information with your computer and media from iTunes, and create backups of iPhones contents and settings. You can create an iTunes Store account, or specify an existing account, to enable purchases with iPhone. iTunes also records iPhones serial number in the event you need it for service or in case of loss.
10
Chapter 1 Getting Started
Register iPhone: 1 Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.itunes.com/download. 2 Connect iPhone to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came with iPhone.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to register iPhone and sync iPhone with your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on your computer, and with music, video, and other content from your iTunes library. In the Set Up Your iPhone screen, select Automatically sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks to congure those items to sync automatically when you connect iPhone to your computer. Or, you can customize your sync settings in iTunes. See the following section.
Setting Up iPhone Using VoiceOver

If you are sight imparied, VoiceOver may help you set up iPhone without outside assistance. VoiceOver describes aloud what appears on the screen so that you can use iPhone without seeing it. When you connect iPhone to your computer, iTunes detects when youre using a compatible screen reader on your computer, such as VoiceOver on a Mac or GW-Micro Window-Eyes on a PC, and automatically enables VoiceOver on iPhone. Or a sighted user can enable VoiceOver on iPhone for you, using the Accessibility settings. See Using VoiceOver on page 185. Note: VoiceOver may not be available in all languages.
Syncing
With iPhone, you can have easy access to important information on your computer, including your contacts, calendars, and even your browser bookmarks, as well as to music, video, and other content in your iTunes library.
11
About Syncing
Syncing copies information and content between iPhone and your computer, keeping it current and up-to-date, whether you make changes on iPhone or on your computer. iTunes lets you specify the information and content on your computer that you want to sync with iPhone. By default, iTunes syncs automatically with iPhone whenever you connect iPhone to your computer. You can also set up iPhone to sync your MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange accounts, over the air. See Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts on page 16.
Syncing with iTunes

You can set iTunes to sync any or all of the following: Contactsnames, phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, and more
Calendarsappointments and events Email account settings Webpage bookmarks Notes (requires Mac OS X version 10.5.7 on a Mac) Ringtones Music and audiobooks Photos Podcasts Movies, TV shows, and music videos Applications downloaded from the iTunes Store
You can adjust sync settings whenever iPhone is connected to your computer. Ringtones, music, audiobooks, podcasts, video content, and applications are synced from your iTunes library. If you dont already have content in iTunes, the iTunes Store (available in some countries) makes it easy to preview and download content to iTunes. You can also add music to your iTunes library from your CDs. To learn about iTunes and the iTunes Store, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help. Contacts, calendars, notes, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications on your computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are synced both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you make on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa. Notes and webpage bookmarks are also synced both ways. Photos can be synced from an application or from a folder.
12
Email account settings are synced only from your computers email application to iPhone. This allows you to customize your email accounts on iPhone without aecting email account settings on your computer. Note: You can also set up email accounts directly on iPhone. See
on page 16.
Purchases you make on iPhone in the iTunes Store or the App Store are synced back
to your iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and applications
directly from the iTunes Store on your computer, and then sync them to iPhone.
You can set iPhone to sync with only a portion of whats on your computer.
For example, you might want to sync only a group of contacts from your address book,
or only unwatched video podcasts.
Important: You should be logged in to your own computer user account before
connecting iPhone.

Preventing Automatic Syncing

You may want to prevent iPhone from syncing automatically when you connect iPhone to a computer other than the one you usually sync with. Turn o automatic syncing for iPhone: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar, then click the Summary tab. Deselect Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected.You can always sync by clicking the Sync button. Prevent automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods: In iTunes choose iTunes > Preferences (on a Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a PC), click Devices, and select Disable automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods. If this checkbox is selected, iPhone wont sync automatically, even if Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected is selected in the Summary pane. Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings: Open iTunes. Then, as you connect iPhone to your computer, press and hold Command-Option (on a Mac) or Shift-Control (on a PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar. Sync manually: In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar, then click Sync in the lowerright corner of the window. Or, if youve changed any sync settings, click Apply.
Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts

iPhone works with MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular email systems.
Setting Up Accounts
MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange provide not only email, but contact and calendar information that can be synced to iPhone automatically, over the air. MobileMe can also sync your bookmarks on iPhone with Safari on a Mac, or with Safari or Microsoft Internet Explorer on a PC. You set up MobileMe, Exchange, and other email accounts directly on iPhone. iPhone uses the Exchange ActiveSync protocol to sync email, calendars, and contacts with the following versions of Microsoft Exchange: Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2
Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
For many of the popular email accounts, iPhone automatically enters most of the settings for you. If you dont already have an email account, you can get a free account online at www.yahoo.com, www.google.com, or www.aol.com. You can also try MobileMe, free for 60 days. Go to www.me.com.
16
Set up an account on iPhone: 1 From the iPhone Home screen, tap Settings. 2 Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then tap Add Account. 3 Tap an account type:
Microsoft Exchange MobileMe Google email Yahoo! Mail AOL Other
4 Enter your account information and tap Save. Your service provider or system administrator can provide the account settings you need. Exchange accounts: Enter your complete email address, domain (optional), user name, password, and a description. The description can be whatever you like. iPhone supports Microsofts Autodiscovery service, which uses your user name and password to determine the address of the Exchange server. If the servers address cant be determined, youre asked to enter it. (Enter the complete address in the Server eld.) Once you connect to the Exchange server, you may be prompted to change your passcode to match the policies set on the server. 5 If youre setting up a MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange account, tap the items you want to use on iPhonemail, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only). MobileMe includes the Find My iPhone feature that helps you locate iPhone if its been lost or stolen, and remotely erase the information on iPhone if necessary.
See Security Features on page 44. If you enable Find My iPhone for your MobileMe
account, make sure that Push is turned on for Fetch New Data. In Settings, choose
Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data, and if Push is o, tap to turn it on.
For Exchange accounts, you can set how many days of email you want to sync
to iPhone.
If you already have contact or calendar information on iPhone when you enable
the account, iPhone asks what you want to do with existing information on iPhone.
You can choose to merge the existing data into your MobileMe or Exchange account.
If you dont merge the data, you can choose to keep it in a separate account on iPhone
(the account is labeled On My iPhone), or delete it. Existing bookmarks can only be
merged or deleted.
Similarly, when you disable contacts or calendars in an MobileMe or Exchange account,
or if you delete an account, iPhone asks if you want to keep information or delete it.
17
You can add contacts using an LDAP account if your company or organization supports it. See Adding Contacts on page 175. You can subscribe to CalDAV or iCal (.ics) calendars. See Subscribing to Calendars on page 93.
Push Accounts
MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and Yahoo! Mail are known as push accounts. When new information is available, such as the arrival of an email message, the information is automatically delivered (pushed) to iPhone. (In contrast, fetch services require your email software to periodically check with your service provider to see if new messages have arrived, and then request them to be delivered.) MobileMe and Exchange also use push to sync your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only) if you have those items selected in the account settings. Synced information is transferred automatically over your wireless connection; you dont need to connect iPhone to your computer to sync. If you dont have a cellular connection, iPhone can receive pushed data over a Wi-Fi connection when iPhone is awake (the screen is on, or iPhone is connected to your computer or a power adapter).
Installing Conguration Proles

If youre in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and
other items on iPhone by installing a conguration prole. Conguration proles
provide a way for system administrators to quickly set up your iPhone to work with
the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a
conguration prole might set up your iPhone to access the Microsoft Exchange
servers at work, enabling iPhone to access your Exchange email, calendars, and
contacts.
Conguration proles can congure multiple settings on iPhone all at once.
For example, a conguration prole can set up your Microsoft Exchange account,
VPN account, and certicates for secure access to your companys network and
information. A conguration prole may turn on the Passcode Lock, requiring you to
create and enter a passcode for using iPhone.
Your system administrator may distribute conguration proles by email or by putting
them on a secure webpage. A system administrator may also install a conguration
prole directly on iPhone for you.
18
Install a conguration prole: 1 Using iPhone, open the email message or download the conguration prole from the website provided by your system administrator. 2 When the conguration prole opens, tap Install. 3 Enter passwords and other information as requested. Important: You may be asked to verify that the conguration prole is trusted. If in doubt, consult your system administrator before installing a conguration prole. Settings provided by a conguration prole cannot be altered. If you want to change these settings, you must rst remove the conguration prole or install an updated conguration prole. Remove a prole: In Settings, choose General > Prole, then select the conguration prole and tap Remove.
Removing a conguration prole deletes the settings and all other information
installed by the conguration prole from iPhone.
Disconnecting iPhone from Your Computer

Unless iPhone is syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it from your computer at any time. When iPhone is syncing with your computer, iPhone shows Sync in progress. If you disconnect iPhone before it nishes syncing, some data may not get transferred. When iPhone nishes syncing, iTunes shows iPhone sync is complete. Cancel a sync: Drag the slider on iPhone. If you get a call during a sync, the sync is canceled automatically and you can unplug iPhone to answer the call. Connect iPhone after the call to nish syncing.

iPhone 3GS Accessibility Features

In addition to the many features that make iPhone easy to use for everyone, the accessibility features available on iPhone 3GS are designed to make it easier for users with visual, auditory, or other physical disabilities to use iPhone. The iPhone 3GS accessibility features include: VoiceOver
Zoom
White on Black
Mono Audio
Speak Auto-text
With the exception of VoiceOver, these accessibility features work with all iPhone applications, including third-party applications you download from the App Store. VoiceOver works with all applications that come preinstalled on iPhone. In addition, third-party developers can use the iPhone Accessibility API to make their applications accessible for VoiceOver users. Individual accessibility features can be turned on and o in the Accessibility settings on iPhone 3GS. You can also turn accessibility features on or o in iTunes when iPhone 3GS is connected to your computer. Turn accessibility features on or o in iTunes: 1 Connect iPhone 3GS to your computer.

4 Select the accessibility features that you want to use and click OK.
VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen so that you can use iPhone without seeing it. VoiceOver speaks in the language specied in International settings, which may be inuenced by the Region Locale setting. VoiceOver tells you about each element on the screen as its selected. When an element is selected, its enclosed by a black rectangle (for the benet of users who can see the screen) and VoiceOver speaks the name or describes the item. The enclosing rectangle is referred to as the VoiceOver cursor. If text is selected, VoiceOver reads the text. If a control (such as a button or switch) is selected and Speak Hints is turned on, VoiceOver may tell you the action of the item or provide instructions for youfor example, double-tap to open. When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound and automatically selects and speaks the rst element of the screen (typically the item in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen is locked or unlocked.
Setting Up VoiceOver
Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures used to control iPhone. Once VoiceOver is turned on, you have to use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPhoneeven for turning VoiceOver o again to resume standard operation. Turn VoiceOver on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and tap the VoiceOver On/O switch. Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.
Turn spoken hints on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver,
and tap the Speak Hints On/O switch. Spoken hints are turned on by default.

Chapter 25 Accessibility
Set the VoiceOver speaking rate: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, and adjust the Speaking Rate slider. You can choose what kind of feedback you get when you type. You can set VoiceOver to speak characters, words, both, or nothing. If you choose to hear both characters and words, VoiceOver speaks each character as you type it, then speaks the whole word when you nish it by entering a space or punctuation. Choose typing feedback: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Typing Feedback, then choose Characters, Words, Characters and Words, or Nothing. Change the language spoken by VoiceOver: In Settings, choose General > International > Language, then select a language and tap OK. Some languages may be inuenced by the Region Local setting. In Settings, choose General > International > Region Format and select the format. Note: VoiceOver may not be available in all languages.
VoiceOver Gestures
When VoiceOver is turned on, the standard touchscreen gestures have dierent results. These and additional gestures allow you to move around the screen and to control the individual elements when theyre selected. VoiceOver gestures include using two and three ngers to tap or ick. For best results using two- and three-nger gestures, relax and let your ngers touch the screen naturally. You can use many dierent techniques to enter VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can enter a two-nger tap using two ngers from one hand, or one nger from each hand. You can also use your thumbs. Try dierent techniques to discover which works best for you. Following is a summary of some of the VoiceOver gestures. Navigate and Read Tap: Speak item.
Flick right or left: Select next or previous item.

Flick up or down: Depends on Rotor Control setting. See Rotor Control on page 184.
Two-nger tap: Stop speaking current item.
Two-nger ick up: Read all from top of screen.
Two-nger ick down: Read all from current position.
Three-nger ick up or down: Scroll one page at a time.
Three-nger ick right or left: Go to next or previous page (such as Home screen,
Stocks, Safari).
Three-nger tap: Speak the scroll status (which page or rows are visible).
183
Select and Activate Double-tap: Activate selected item.
Touch an item with one nger, tap the screen with another nger (split tapping):
Activate item.
Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture.
The double-tap and hold gesture tells iPhone to interpret the subsequent gesture as a standard one. For example, you can double-tap and hold, then without lifting your nger, drag your nger to slide a switch.
Two-nger double tap: Answer or end a call. Play or pause (iPod, YouTube, Voice
Memos, Photos). Take a picture (Camera). Start or pause recording (Camera, Voice Memos).
Three-nger double tap: Mute or unmute VoiceOver. Three-nger triple tap: Turn the screen curtain on or o.
Note: Single-nger icking gestures must be done quickly to distinguish them from dragging gestures.
Rotor Control
The rotor control is an invisible dial that you can use to change the results of up and
down ick gestures when VoiceOver is turned on.
Operate the rotor: Rotate two ngers on the iPhone screen to turn the dial to
choose between options.
The eect of the rotor depends on what youre doing. For example, if youre reading
text in an email you received, you can use the rotor to switch between hearing text
spoken word-by-word or character-by-character when you ick up or down. If youre
browsing a webpage, use the rotor to choose whether you hear text word-by-word
or character-by-character, hear just the headers, hear just the links (all of them, visited
links, or links not yet visited), hear form elements, or hear descriptions of images.
In other words, you can use the rotor setting to hear all the text, or to jump from
one element to another of a certain type, such as headers or links.
Rotor options depend on the context of what youre doing.
Reading text Select and hear: text character-by-character
text word-by-word

Browsing a webpage Select and hear: text character-by-character

text word-by-word headers all links form elements links visited links not visited images
Entering text Move insertion point and hear: text character-by-character

text word-by-word auto-text
Using a control (such as the spinner used to set the time in Clock) Select and hear: value character-by-character
value word-by-word
Or, adjust the value of the control object.
Using VoiceOver
Note: VoiceOver may not be available in all languages. Select items on the screen: Drag your nger over the screen. VoiceOver identies each element as you touch it. You can also move systematically from one element to the next by icking left or right with a single nger. Elements are selected from leftto-right, top-to-bottom. Flick right to go to the next element, or ick left to go to the previous element. Tap a selected item when VoiceOver is turned on: Double-tap anywhere on the screen. Speak the text of an element, character by character or word by word: With the element selected, ick up or down with one nger. Flick down to read the next character, or ick up to read the previous character. Twist the rotor control to read word by word.
185
Enter text: Select a key on the keyboard by icking left or right, then double-tap
to enter the character. Or drag you nger around the keyboard to select a key and,
while holding the key with one nger, tap the screen with another nger to enter the
character. VoiceOver speaks the key when its selected and again when its entered.
Flick up or down to move the insertion point forward or backward in the text.
VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves and speaks the character to
the right of the insertion point. Use the Rotor to select moving the insertion point by
character or by word.
To enter an accented character, double-tap and hold until you hear a sound that
indicates the alternate characters have appeared, then drag left or right to select and
hear the choices. Release your nger to enter the current selection.
Adjust a slider: With a single nger, ick up to increase the setting or down to
decrease the setting. VoiceOver announces the setting as you adjust it.
Scroll a list or area of the screen: Flick up or down with three ngers. Flick down to
scroll down, or ick up to scroll up. If youre scrolling through a list, VoiceOver speaks
the range of items displayed (for example, showing rows 5 through 10). Areas are
scrolled in sections, and VoiceOver tells you which section is visible as you scroll.
For best results using three-nger gestures, relax and let your ngers touch the screen
naturally.
Unlock iPhone: Select the Unlock switch, then double-tap the screen.
Mute VoiceOver Double-tap with three ngers. Double-tap again with three ngers to turn speaking back on. To turn o only VoiceOver sounds, set the Ring/ Silent switch to Silent.

Zoom
Many iPhone applications let you zoom in and out specic elements. For example, you can double-tap or use the pinch gesture to expand webpage columns in Safari. Zoom is a special accessibility feature that lets you magnify the entire screen of any application youre using to help you see whats on the display. Turn Zoom on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/O switch. Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time. Zoom in or out: Double-tap the screen with three ngers. By default, the screen is magnied by 200 percent. If you manually change the magnication (by using the tapand-drag gesture, described below), iPhone automatically returns to that magnication when you zoom in by double-tapping with three ngers. Increase magnication: With three ngers, tap and drag toward the top of the screen (to increase magnication) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease magnication). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you dont lift your ngers on the second tapinstead, drag your ngers on the screen. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single nger. For best results using three-nger gestures, relax and let your ngers touch the screen naturally. Move around the screen: When zoomed in, drag or ick the screen with three ngers. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single nger so that you can see more of the screen. Hold a single nger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of the screen image. Move your nger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone display, which may make it easier to read the screen. The screen looks like a photographic negative when White on Black is turned on. Invert the screens colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the White on Black switch.
Mono Audio
Mono Audio combines the sound of the left and right channels into a mono signal played on both sides. This enables users with hearing impairment in one ear to hear the entire sound signal with the other ear. Turn Mono Audio on or o: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the Mono Audio switch.

MPEG-4 (Simple Prole)
A song encoded using Apple Lossless format has full CD-quality sound, but takes up
only about half as much space as a song encoded using AIFF or WAV format. The same
song encoded in AAC or MP3 format takes up even less space. When you import music
from a CD using iTunes, its converted to AAC format by default.
Using iTunes for Windows, you can convert nonprotected WMA les to AAC or MP3
format. This can be useful if you have a library of music encoded in WMA format.
iPhone doesnt support WMA, MPEG Layer 1, MPEG Layer 2 audio les, or audible.com
format 1.
197
If you have a song or video in your iTunes library that isnt supported by iPhone, you may be able to convert it to a format iPhone supports. See iTunes Help for more information.

iTunes Store Isnt Available

Backing Up iPhone
iTunes creates backups of settings, downloaded applications and data, and other information on iPhone. You can use a backup to restore these items to your iPhone after a software restore or to transfer the information to another iPhone. Backing up iPhone or restoring from a backup is not the same as syncing content and other items (such as music, podcasts, ringtones, photos, videos, and applications that you download via iTunes) with your iTunes library. Backups include settings, downloaded applications and data, and other information that resides on iPhone. You can restore these items from a backup using iTunes, but you may also have to sync your iTunes library content again.
198
Applications downloaded from the App Store are backed up the next time you sync with iTunes. Afterwards, only application data is backed up when you sync with iTunes.
Creating Backups
Backups can be created in the following ways: Once iPhone has been congured to sync with a particular computer, iTunes automatically makes a backup of iPhone on that computer when you sync. iTunes wont automatically back up an iPhone that isnt congured to sync with that computer. If youve congured iPhone to automatically sync with iTunes on a specic computer, iTunes will back up iPhone every time you connect it to that computer. Automatic syncing is turned on by default. iTunes only makes one backup each time you connect, even if you sync multiple times before disconnecting.
If you choose to update the software on iPhone, iTunes will back up iPhone
automatically, even if it isnt congured to sync with iTunes on that computer.

If you choose to restore the software on iPhone, iTunes asks if you want to back up
iPhone before restoring. If you use a Bluetooth headset or car kit with iPhone and you restore settings, you must pair the Bluetooth device with iPhone again to use it. For more information about backups, including the settings and information stored in a backup, go to www.apple.com/support and search for HT1766.
Restoring from a Backup

You can restore the settings, downloaded applications, and other information from a backup, or use this feature to transfer these items to another iPhone. Restore iPhone from a backup: 1 Connect iPhone to the computer you normally sync with. 2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar and click the Summary tab. 3 Click Restore to reinstall the iPhone software, restore its default settings, and delete data stored on iPhone. If your backup is encrypted, youll need to enter your passcode. See iPhone Settings Panes in iTunes on page 13. In iTunes, you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone.
Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but isnt
permanently erased from your iPhone until its overwritten by new data. For
information about permanently erasing all content and settings, see Resetting
iPhone on page 148.
When prompted, select the option to restore your settings, downloaded applications,
and other information from a backup and select the backup you want to use. Multiple
backups are listed by device in chronological order with the most recent backup for a
device listed rst.
199
Removing a Backup
You can remove a backup of iPhone from the list of backups in iTunes. You may want to do this, for example, if a backup was created on someone elses computer. Remove a backup: 1 In iTunes, open iTunes Preferences.
Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences. Mac: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
2 Click Devices (iPhone does not need to be connected). 3 Select the backup you want to remove, then click Delete Backup. 4 Conrm you wish to remove the selected backup by clicking Delete Backup. 5 Click OK to close the iTunes Preferences Window.
Updating and Restoring iPhone Software

You can use iTunes to update or reinstall iPhone software, restore default settings,
and delete all data on iPhone.
If you update, the iPhone software is updated but your downloaded applications,
settings, and songs arent aected.
If you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, default settings are
restored, and data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded applications, songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. In iTunes, you can also restore from a backup without deleting data stored on iPhone. Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but isnt
permanently erased from your iPhone until its overwritten by new data. For
information about permanently erasing all content and settings, see Resetting
iPhone on page 148.
Update or restore iPhone: 1 Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes. 2 Connect iPhone to your computer. 3 Select iPhone in the iTunes sidebar and click the Summary tab. 4 Click Check for Update. iTunes tells you if theres a newer version of the iPhone software available. 5 Click Update to install the latest version of the software.
